London, Nov 28 (ANI): Style bible Elle magazine has awarded first place in the category of "political chic" to Michelle Obama, and second to Carla Bruni-Sarkozy.
The magazine's annual best-dressed list, which proclaimed that America's First Lady is more chic than France's Première Dame, was unveiled yesterday.
It is the second year in a row that Bruni, 42, has come second on the list; last year Elle put her behind Asma Assad, the British-born wife of the Syrian President.
The Elle style jury was led by Nathalie Rykiel, of the Sonia Rykiel house, reports The Times.
Elle said: "Mrs Obama resembles no one else - her style is unique. She encourages young designers and has succeeded in imposing the waisted cardigan as official dress."
Rama Yade, 33, Nicolas Sarkozy's Senegalese-born junior Sports Minister, came third, with Princess Letizia of Spain fourth and Ségolène Royal, the Socialist party maverick, in fifth place.
The winners in Elle's other seven categories were:
Stylista: Tilda Swinton
Total-noir: Valerie Lemercier (French actress-comedian)
British Girl: Alexa Chung
Sexy bombe: Scarlett Johansson
Fashion pointue: Natalia Vodianova
Red Carpet: Penelope Cruz
It Girl: Elettra Wiedermann (ANI)
